I actually don't mind people experimenting to help themselves. At the same time I just want to make sure that people do their due diligence in researching deeply into whatever care they plan to use. I go so far that recently, even this weekend, I called the manufacturers of a liposomal EGCG suppliment because I wanted them to send me their pharmacokinetic and clinical data to prove their technology before I purchase it. In fact, one such company last week, gave me lots of material, their patent data, clinical data, and was happy to create a document. They said I was the first client to ask for such data which to me is kind of unfortunate. More people should do research and not just accept something as true even if it seems like it falls onto our side.
I'm sure it could have a similar effect. But I can only talk about what I know.
I didn't try niacin. And while maybe it would have the same effect, the amount to be taken and how it is taken are both important. The nicotine patch delivers directly into the bloodstream at a consistent rate over a 24-hr period. Unless you have a niacin patch with a consistent delivery, it can't be an apple-to-apple comparison. But as long as you've determined that the dose and method are safe, it seems reasonable to try. Lots of people take niacin.
I faithfully did the NAC + bromelain (and there was another component as well, don't remember it now) protocol for a number of weeks. Not only did I feel like a supplement junkie, popping pills morning and night, but it didn't work for me in that my symptoms returned after a while anyway.
After doing the nicotine patch for 2 weeks, I felt better. It's been over a year now, and I've had no return of symptoms, and zero motivation to take any other supplements. Not only that, but the patches were much cheaper than the regimen of supplements, and easier to find. The supplements didn't do any harm that I could notice, but overall the nicotine patches worked for me where the supplements didn't. That's why I recommend the patches.
Unfortunately I looked further into this video, and its a fake.
the structure shown in the video is nothing other than sodium chloride (salt)
Here is simple examples:

Do either you or u/Mr_A think Niacin (nicotinic acid) could have a similar effect to outright nicotine?
Bromelain also works in this line, Mr_A?
